CBSE Science Fair Exhibition Project, “Compressed Dry Leaf Board” Theme “Natural Resource & their Conservation” for Class 9, Class 10 and 12

Project Name : Compressed Dry Leaf Board

Theme Name : Natural Resource & their Conservation

Objective/Aim: To preserve natural resources by resisting deforestation

Scientific Principle: It is based on the fact that dry leaves
can be crushed and compressed under moderate or high pressure into thin sheets or logs by a simple pressing machine.

Material Used: Dried leaves, grinder/crusher, adhesive,
roller

Working Investigation:

Firstly, we have to collect leaves, backyard waste and other biomasses which are of no use otherwise.

Put them into a simple crusher (the leaves are crushed by the crusher)

Add adhesive, to combine the leaves and moreover to enhance the strength of a leaf board or log.

Pressure is applied by a simple machine to compress leaves into sheets or logs.

Utility and Further Scope:

It is also capable of compacting aluminum cans.

It can be used in tribal areas as small scale industry.

It can provide employment in rural as well as urban areas.

Is cost effective.

It can be used in earthquake prone areas where raw material for construction is mainly wood and logs.

It can be used in rural areas where wood is used for cooking.

Leaf board can be used in place of wooden ply, book self, table mat & coaster.
